Using the Command Line Interface
Overview
The Command Line Interface (CLI) is accessible via either a directly connected
terminal session or a Telnet connection. You can use the CLI to:
T Change the operational characteristics of the device by setting configuration
values
T Display system status
T Perform diagnostics
The system supports multiple simultaneous CLI sessions.
TL1 Command Language
The GranDSLAM 4200 uses Transaction Language No. 1 (TL1) commands since it
is a universal language and is familiar to many network users.
The TL1 command is in the following general format:
COMMAND_CODE:[STAGING PARAMETERS]::;
where:
T The colon (:) is the data block delimiter.
T The semicolon (;) is the input command terminator.
T Square brackets ([ ]) designate that the enclosed value is optional.
T Angled brackets (< >) indicate that the enclosed words describe part of the
command.
